 It is related that when MT. Charles P. Clark, the new president of the Consolidated railroad, called on President Cleveland for the purpose of withdrawing the papers that had been filed in his behalf for one of the in- ter-state commerce commissionerships, he was astenished to receive big package of letters, signed by prominent merchants and business men from all over New England and the Middle States, ,testifying to MT. Clarks em- inent qualifications for such an appointment. Most of thew riters of these letters had not been approached by MT. Clark or any of his friends in order to secure their endorseme ents, and many of them were strangers to him personally. After looking over these docu- ments MT. Clark concluded to hand them back to the President, with the request that they be returned to the writers or destroyed. ''If kept these letters," said MT. Clark to the President, ''I should always fear lest I might do sonnet hing that might cause these kind friends to regret that they had written such kind things of me-"
 The phonopore is the latest claimant for attention in the telegraphic field. It is de- velopment of telegraphy by sound. without the passage of electric currents. It is the in- vention of C.Langdon Davies of London and is thus described: In exterior form the transmitter appears to be an ordinary Morse key mounted on a base about four inches high. This base contains an instrument which somewhat resembles an induction coil. The impulses are gener ated in primary cir cult of improved construction, over which is wound, in place of a secondary circuit, a phonopore of two wires insulated from each other throughout their entire length and at both ends, each of these wires being, howev- CT, connected at one end only to the line. The number of phonoporic impulses gener- ated in the transmitter per second is regulat- ed by the vibrations of an organ reed placed in the primary circuit. Another reed tuned to the same rate of vibration is placed as a receiver at the distant station in front of an electro-magnet, and the phonoporic impulses from the transmitter cause it to vibrate. A new form contaot-breaker, operated by the receiver-reed, completes local relay circuit when the reed is still, but breaks it when ever the reed vibrates, thereby setting in action any required instrument in connection with any battery.

mand that one of his opponents arms shall be secured immovably, he is prudent to try to obtain for himself every fair chance. But, when he insists that man with one arm can always fight the hardest and best and would have all fighting men lop off one arm in or der to be like himself, he urges an absurdity that our reason well our experience cannot allow. If the one-armed fighter ever proved himself the best man, if he only sometimes overcame his opponent and forced lief in his assertion and some occasion for reasonable argument; but so long as physical laws, now existing, remain unchanged and so long as the two-handed fighter wins easily and always, we shall remain confirmed in our present belief that for fighting two hands are better than one.

The women of Kansas are wide awake. Political clubs of women are being organized for the approaching municipal elections, in which they have now the right to take part.

 The recklessness with which some minis ters of the gospel deal with tor deal in) mar riage is astonishing. A Buffalo minister has married two couples of the ages of IA and 16, and of 16 and IT, respectively, one of the brides being miss with skirts above her knees and hair hanging down her back. There ought to be law that would reach such performance as this.
 During the last ten months there were ex- ported from this country only 12,121 ,321 pounds of butter, but in the corresponding months of last year the quantity exported was +, ,038, ,620 pounds. Last month we ex- ported only ,44s, ,OO1. pounds of cheese, but in February, 1886, we exported 3,486, ,314 pounds. On the other hand, the quantity of f'oleo oil" exported was greatly increased. The advance for January, 1887, over Janu- ary, 1886, was more than 200 per cent.
 The city treasurer of Iowa City recently received letter from a former resident of the place enclosing handsome check, with the explanation that the writer had been 8 traveller for years and that the remittance represented sum equal to 8 proper tax on the capital he had taken with him and which had been taxed nowhere. It is significant that this announcement will cause great deal of surprise, but we do not expect that the New Haven treasurers mail will be much increased by followers of the Iowa City mans example.
 Two white teachers, with ten negro girls | from the Clark university, took seats in g gospel tent in Atlanta the other afternoon. The students were asked to change their seats l for those reserved for negroes; but their teachers told them to sit still. Then police | man was called, who insisted that the girls | must change their seats. This resulted in
 teachers and students all quitting the tent. Said one of the teachers to the other: q l never knew before that ones color made any difference in a church before the Lord" q don't know what it does before the Lord, '
 answered he, ''but down South here it makes
 difference. In this section we have noth-
 ing like social equality, and never will, in | church or out of church.

japanese Wooden Shoes.

In Japan childIen's shoes are made of
blocks Of wood secured with cords. The
stocking resembles a mItten, having q
separate place for the great toe. As
these shoes are lifted only by the toes,
the heels make rattling sound as their
owners walk. which is quite stunning
in a crowd. They are not worn in the
house. as they would injure the soft
straw mats on the floor. You leave
your shoes at the door. Every house is
built with reference to the number of
mats required for the floors, each room
having from eight 10 sixteen and In
taking lodgings you pay so much for a

A Sickening Bull Fight.

A fearful spectacle was witnessed at
OAK on the Adour, France, a few weeks
ago. A band of Spanish bull fighters
had introduced powerful black steer
upon whom Joselto, the matador, aimed
blow. but missed, and he was run
down by the brute. a cry of terror
arose. But Joselto was up again and
seemed unhurt. He now succeeded in
stabuiDg the bull at the chest, but the
animal stood its ground. 4 second and
third thrust had no better effect. al
though the man succeeded in pushing
his weapon to the hilt into the animal
from which the blood ran in torrents.
That was too much for the spectators.
They began crying with pain, howling
with disgust, and prepared TO finish the
cruel Spaniard. Several times he still
succeeded in piercing the steer with his
sword, but conld not stop the animal
from constantly charging against his
enemies. Now glasses, bottles and
chairs were hurled by the spectators
upon the Spandiard, who ran away,
handing his sword to another man, who
also pierced the bull again and again
without finishing him. Several men
then attacked the beast with swords and
lances, and fiDally brought it down.
But the spectacle had been too much
for the auditory. There arose feafuI
cry OF ye2gence upon the Spaniards, and
the high and strong inclosure was being
attacked. rhe Spaniards, however,
were fortunate enough to make their
escape before the lynching parties CO uld
lay hold of them.
